Sources confirm that Hugh Jackman is in negotiations to reprise Wolverine in the movie, which is ostensibly a sequel to X-Men: First Class but will prominently feature actors from the first X-Men trilogy (the first two of which Singer directed).

You know Mark Millar is creaming his pantaloons at the prospect of an Old Man Logan on screen.

The XMFC cast is going to be so secondary in this film it's like they won't even be there at all. Sir Ian and Sir Patrick? I can deal. Wolverine, are you kidding me???? This isn't XMFC2 anymore, this is bloody X4. I'm officially and completely done. All I can hope for is that it isn't a colossal failure at the box office so they can make a proper third movie about the XMFC team.

It shouldn't be a surprise that Wolverine is going to be in this movie. I understand your concern, but don't share it... yet. McAvoy, Fassbender, and Lawrence have too much to offer to be reduced to such secondary roles, especially since they are the ones to carry on the franchise once Days of Future Past has come and gone.

I can't believe we have to wait a year for a trailer to this thing. Hopefully, they will have something for us at comic-con. The updates have been great, though.

Or a teaser in front of The Wolverine, since that's out next July.

It's great to be excited about an X-men film again, not since post-x2 have i been this giddy about the possibilities. I'm not much of an avengers guy, X-Men has always been #1. This film definitely trumps the marvel phase films by a mile when talking my anticipation.

Unless they decide that it's actually going to span TWO movies instead of just one. Which, please I hope not. I get that Avengers put the thirst for an event movie in Fox's eyes but this is not the right way to do it.

If this was the third movie I would be unbelieeeevably excited. But they really should be tackling 60's team character development before they move onto a massive ensemble cast. Leaving it for the third movie would have wrapped up everything nicely, leaving room for more XMFC (if Fassbender/McAvoy/Lawrence were up to it) and perhaps even X4. They really screwed up.
